Jewel-Beetle Wing Dress

Charlize Theron wears a dress made from discarded jewel-beetle wings in Snow White and the Huntsmen.  Costume designer Coleen Atwood wanted to create the image of the Queen Ravenna's own physical and psychological deterioration by using these fragile and decaying wings.  Quite a striking turquoise dress if you ask me.

  1. In what scene of the movie did she wear this dress? I have watched for the dress but cannot seem to pick it out in the movie.

  2. Honestly, I didn't watch the movie, but I understand it was used only briefly. Kind of a waste, eh?
